Examination information
Assessment criteria / Standards of assessment for examinations
16 points may be obtained in total.
10 of those points can be obtained by solving assignments ("Assignment points"), 4 by presenting solutions ("Presentation points"), and 2 through the maths in economics assignments ("Project points").
It is required to obtain at least 6 assignment points; in that case, total points translate into grades as follows:
>= 8 Points Grade 4
>= 10 Points Grade 3
>= 12 Points Grade 2
>= 14 Points Grade 1
There are 12 sessions of 45 minutes each, i.e., there will be 12 assignment sheets. The assignments are handed out via Moodle a week before the session.
Assignment points:
Until 12:00 on the day of the exercise class, you may select online any problem that you have completed. You have then indicated both your thorough understanding and your willingness to present any problem you have selected. When we are ready to discuss a given problem during class, the presenting student will be selected randomly.
For the assignment points, your best 10 sessions are counted. For each session, the number of points you receive equals the number of solved problems (as indicated by your selections online) divided by the number of problems discussed in that session. For example, if on the online form you indicate that you have solved 5 problems, and there are 7 problems in total, you will get 5/7 points.
In case of an honour code violation (e.g. saying that you have solved problems but not showing up for class to present solutions if chosen, selecting problems without having solved and understood them), all of your marks for the semester are multiplied by 3/4 (and will continue to be reduced in this way if you repeatedly violate the honour code) and/or all points of the corresponding session are deleted.
Presentation points:
Each presentation is worth 4 points; the average of these presentations yields the presentation points. You should present at least twice, or else you will be penalised (your average will assume that you have done two presentations).Points are awarded for correctness, clarity, brevity, originality, etc.
Project points:
Project points are obtained if the project presented is flawless and well documented.
Deregistration is possible until April 15th 2021. After this date, students get a grade regardless.
